Alan - no it's a 325 CI Sport, Auto, Petrol, 59K.

Nathy - hopefully will scrub up ok! Plugged it into BMW software today to try and code a few new things to the key but turns out the car needs an update that I can't apply so think I'll leave that one as I don't want to kill it!

Jack - yeh it's mine, although I won't be posting about it too much tbh Oh and careful with the G101 as it's very strong and can bugger leather. You're not really meant to use it on it but it can help with the initial bite!


Shame I might be after a diesel

I remember when I first used G101. I sprayed it all over a grey leather lexus interior. It was diluted about 5-1 I walked away for 5 minutes and when I came back it looked it it had been sprayed with acid all were I'd sprayed was a much lighter shade. 3 of us spent the next hour making it all the same colour again. Customer was made up.


Haha noted! Cheers

I'm loving the colour, the wheel colour goes perfectly. It's spot on. I drive a gold yaris and it gets looked down upon on yaris forums but I find the all the greys etc bland looking now.

Bloody lovely Rich.

Looks like it ought to taste of butterscotch if you gave it a lick.

I'll never understand... why the HELL do people put that crap all over the interior?

It's just disgusting and it ages it so badly.

Lovely clean up job sir.

Cheers all! Seem to have picked up a puncture already Have lost 10psi in a rear tyre on the drive home tonight. Will have to inspect in the morning!

Still enjoying it though - the noise is so addictive!

Whats the noise like inside? They are quite tinny sounding outside. does it have a sound generator that pipes engine sound into the cabin? Mine has it and it makes a huge difference. Sounds quiet outside and boy racer inside, but only when you put your foot down.

Obviously so far I've only heard it with the roof (hardtop) on, you do still hear the tinny rasp at the higher end of the rev range, but it does also have quite a nice deep growl to it at the lower end of the revs. I never used to like the noise they made until I drove them! Don't know if it has any of those 'acoustic pipes' into the cabin or not tbh!

From outside I much prefer the noise of a 325 / 330 tbh!

I prefer the deep growl of my dads 330ci at lower revs. But mine at full chat sounds epic. Only wish it rasped at well
